A one-of-a-kind meeting of the minds, Monica Larner of Wine Advocate and Alison Napjus of Wine Spectator celebrate their mutual passion for Italian wine. Watch this out!
—
Monica Larner of Robert Parker Wine Advocate and Alison Napjus of Wine Spectator shared the stage for the first time during Vinitaly 2022. A “never before” event, with two leading wine critics and journalists combining their powers to tell the stories of seven women-led Italian wineries. Seven iconic women, seven signature wines, giving voice to the history and narrative that reveals the true soulfulness of Italian wine.
This unique event encompassed so much more than the sum of the individual women: two leading international female journalists, the female managing director of Vinitaly International, and seven renowned Italian women wine producers collaborated to create an event that set aside the natural competition between the players and focused instead on personal stories, camaraderie, and the aspiration all these women hold for the future of Italian wine.
